* iopoll.c (fclose_wait): Rename from confusing fclose_nonblock name.
Also adjust to do no operations on the stream after fclose()
as this is undefined. Instead use fflush() to determine EAGAIN status.
(fwrite_wait): Renamed from confusing fwrite_nonblock name.
Non blocking outputs can be seen for example
when piping telnet through tee to a terminal.
In that case telnet sets its input to nonblocking mode,
which results in tee's output being nonblocking,
in which case in may receive an EAGAIN error upon write().
The same issue was seen with mpirun.
The following can be used to reproduce this
locally at a terminal (in most invocations):
$ { dd iflag=nonblock count=0 status=none;
dd bs=10K count=10 if=/dev/zero status=none; } |
tee || echo fail >/dev/tty
* src/iopoll.c (iopoll_internal): A new function refactored from
iopoll(), to also support a mode where we check the output
descriptor is writeable.
(iopoll): Now refactored to just call iopoll_internal().
(fwait_for_nonblocking_write): A new internal function which
uses iopoll_internal() to wait for writeable output
if an EAGAIN or EWOULDBLOCK was received.
(fwrite_nonblock): An fwrite() wrapper which uses
fwait_for_nonblocking_write() to handle EAGAIN.
(fclose_nonblock): Likewise.
src/iopoll.h: Add fclose_nonblock, fwrite_nonblock.
src/tee.c: Call fclose_nonblock() and fwrite_nonblock wrappers,
instead of the standard functions.
* tests/misc/tee.sh: Add a test case.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
The idea was suggested by Kamil Dudka in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1615467
This was introduced recently with commit v9.1-166-g6b12e62d9
* src/tee.c (tee_files): Check the return from fopen()
before passing to fileno() etc.
* tests/misc/tee.sh: Add a test case.
* src/tee.c (pipe_check): Make this a local var instead
of a static var. This suppresses a -Wmaybe-uninitialized
diagnostic with gcc 12.2.1 20221121 (Red Hat 12.2.1-4).
(main): Don’t set pipe_check unnecessarily if a later
-p option overrides an earlier one that wants pipe_check.
Problem discovered when I investigated the GCC warning.
* src/tail.c (check_output_alive): Reuse iopoll()
rather than directly calling poll() or select().
* src/iopoll.c (iopoll): Refactor to support non blocking operation,
or ignoring descriptors by passing a negative value.
* src/iopoll.h (iopoll): Adjust to support a BLOCK parameter.
* src/tee.c (tee_files): Adjust iopoll() call to explicitly block.
* src/local.mk: Have tail depend on iopoll.c.
* src/tee.c (usage): Change from describing one (non pipe) aspect
to the more general point of being the option to use if working with
pipes, and referencing the more detailed info below.
* doc/coreutils.texi (tee invocation): s/standard/appropriate/ since
the standard operation with pipes is to exit immediately upon write
error. s/early/immediately/ as it's ambiguous as to what "early"
is in relation to.
If input is intermittent (a tty, pipe, or socket), and all remaining
outputs are pipes (eg, >(cmd) process substitutions), exit early when
they have all become broken pipes (and thus future writes will fail),
without waiting for more input to become available, as future write
attempts to these outputs will fail (SIGPIPE/EPIPE).
Only provide this enhancement when pipe errors are ignored (-p mode).
Note that only one output needs to be monitored at a time with iopoll(),
as we only want to exit early if _all_ outputs have been removed.
* src/tee.c (pipe_check): New global for iopoll mode.
(main): enable pipe_check for -p, as long as output_error ignores EPIPE,
and input is suitable for iopoll().
(get_next_out): Helper function for finding next valid output.
(fail_output, tee_files): Break out write failure/output removal logic
to helper function.
(tee_files): Add out_pollable array to track which outputs are suitable
for iopoll() (ie, that are pipes); track first output index that is
still valid; add iopoll() broken pipe detection before calling read(),
removing an output that becomes a broken pipe.
* src/local.mk (src_tee_SOURCES): include src/iopoll.c.
* NEWS: Mention tee -p enhancement in Improvements.
* doc/coreutils.texi: Mention the new early exit behavior in the nopipe
modes for the tee -p option.

Adjust to renaming of the xsetmode module to xbinary-io,
and of the xsetmode function to xset_binary_mode.
This fixes a bug noted by Eric Blake. Code was using xfreopen to
change files to binary mode, but this fails for stdout when in
append mode. Such code should use xsetmode instead. This affects
only the port on platforms like MS-Windows which distiguish text
from binary I/O.

Quote file names using the "shell-escape" or "shell-escape-always"
methods, which quote as appropriate for most shells,
and better support copy and paste of presented names.
The "always" variant is used when the file name is
embedded in an error message with surrounding spaces.
* cfg.mk (sc_error_shell_quotes): A new syntax check rule
to suggest quotef() where appropriate.
(sc_error_shell_always_quotes): Likewise for quoteaf().
* src/system.h (quotef): A new define to apply shell quoting
when needed. I.E. when shell character or ':' is present.
(quoteaf): Likewise, but always quote.
* src/*.c: Use quotef() and quoteaf() rather than quote()
where appropriate.
* tests/: Adjust accordingly.
These strings are often file names or other user specified
parameters, which can give confusing errors in
the presence of unexpected characters for example.
* cfg.mk (sc_error_quotes): A new syntax check rule.
* src/*.c: Wrap error() string arguments with quote().
* tests/: Adjust accordingly.
* NEWS: Mention the improvement.
* src/tee.c (tee_files): Last arg is now char ** instead of char
const **, as that is a bit simpler. All callers changed. Modify
files[-1], not files[nfiles], as that is a bit faster and simpler.
Latter problem pointed out by Rainer Deyke in:

* src/uniq.c (usage): Likewise for -D.
Suggested by Stephane Chazelas
Adjust commit v8.23-140-gfdd6ebf to add the --output-error option
instead of --write-error, and treat open() errors like write() errors.
* doc/coreutils.texi (tee invocation): s/write-error/output-error/.
* src/tee.c (main): Exit on open() error if appropriate.
* tests/misc/tee.sh: Add a case to test open() errors.
* NEWS: Adjust for the more general output error behavior.
Suggested by Bernhard Voelker.
tee is very often used with pipes and this gives better control
when writing to them. There are 3 classes of file descriptors
that tee can write to: files(1), pipes(2), and early close pipes(3).
Handling write errors to 1 & 2 is supported at present with the caveat
that failure writing to any pipe will terminate tee immediately.
Handling write errors to type 3 is not currently supported.
To improve the supported combinations we add these options:
--write-error=warn
Warn if error writing any output including pipes.
Allows continued writing to still open files/pipes.
Exit status is failure if any output had error.
--write-error=warn-nopipe, -p
Warn if error writing any output except pipes.
Allows continued writing to still open files/pipes.
Exit status is failure if any non pipe output had error.
--write-error=exit
Exit if error writing any output including pipes.
--write-error=exit-nopipe
Exit if error writing any output except pipes.
Use the "nopipe" variants when files are of types 1 and 3, otherwise
use the standard variants with types 1 and 2. A caveat with the above
scheme is that a combination of pipe types (2 & 3) is not supported
robustly. I.e. if you use the "nopipe" variants when using both type
2 and 3 pipes, then any "real" errors on type 2 pipes will not be
diagnosed.
Note also a general issue with type 3 pipes that are not on tee's
stdout, is that shell constructs don't allow to distinguish early
close from real failures. For example `tee >(head -n1) | grep -m1 ..`
can't distinguish between an error or an early close in "head" pipe,
while the fail on the grep part of the pipe is distinguished
independently from the resulting pipe errors. This is a general
issue with the >() construct, rather than with tee itself.
* NEWS: Mention the new feature.
* doc/coreutils.texi (tee invocation): Describe the new option.
* src/tee.c (usage): Likewise.
(main): With --write-error ignore SIGPIPE, and handle
the various exit, diagnostics combinations.
* tests/misc/tee.sh: Tess all the new options.
Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/11540
This is a cleanup to the previous commit v8.23-138-g7ceaf1d.
* src/tee.c (tee_files): Do not exempt the "-" file from being closed,
as this is no longer stdout but a normal file.
Since v5.2.1-1247-g8dafbe5, tee(1) treated '-' as stdout while POSIX
explicitly requires to treat this as a file name. Revert this change,
as the interleaved output - due to sending another copy of input to
stdout - is not considered to be useful. Discussed in
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2015-02/msg00085.html
* src/tee.c (tee_files): Remove the special handling for "-" operands.
(usage): Remove the corresponding sentence.
* doc/coreutils.texi (common options): Remove the "tee -" example.
(tee invocation): Document that tee(1) now treats "-" as a file name.
* tests/misc/tee.sh: Add a test case for "tee -".
While at it, re-indent the above multi-argument processing case and
extend that to 13 operands, as POSIX mandates that, too.
* tests/misc/tee-dash.sh: Remove now-obsolete test.
* tests/local.mk (all_tests): Remove the above test.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention the change.
* src/tee.c (main): Don't continue reading if we can't
output anywhere.
* tests/misc/tee.sh: Ensure we exit when no more outputs.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
Run "make update-copyright" and then...
* tests/sample-test: Adjust to use the single most recent year.
* tests/du/bind-mount-dir-cycle-v2.sh: Fix case in copyright message,
so that year is updated automatically in future.
* src/system.h (emit_ancillary_info): Take the invariant PROGRAM_NAME
as a parameter, so that consistent references are made to online docs
and texinfo nodes, when a --program-prefix is in place. Note the
man pages don't need this fix as they're generated before the program
prefix is used.
* NEWS: Mention the improvements in references to online documentation.
Run "make update-copyright", but then also run this,
perl -pi -e 's/2\d\d\d-//' tests/sample-test
to make that one script use the single most recent year number.

Don't use "#ifdef EINTR". dd.c has been doing that since 2004.
* src/copy.c (sparse_copy): Remove #ifdef...#endif around EINTR use.
* src/tee.c (tee_files): Remove #ifdef...#endif around EINTR use.
If we need it, add something like this in system.h:
/* When EINTR is not defined, define it to an improbable value
so that each use does not have to be #ifdef'd. */
#ifndef EINTR
# define EINTR 999988
#endif
* src/system.h: Rename emit_bug_reporting_address() to
emit_ancillary_info() and update it to not print the translation
project address in en_* locales, and _do_ print it in the 'C'
(and other) locales so that it's included in the default man page.
Also mention how to invoke the texinfo documentation for each command.
Also move the "hard-locale.h" include to the 8 files that now use it.
* man/help2man: Strip the newly added texinfo reference from the
--help output as a more verbose version is already added by help2man.
